EXHIBIT B
Certain SEC filings identify four (4) investment advisors - T. Rowe Price Associates, Inc., Janus Capital Management LLC, Wellington Management Company, LLP, and Fidelity Management & Research Company - as beneficial owners of greater than 7.5% of Disclosing Party's voting securities as of the respective filing date. Beneficial ownership is attributed to them under the SEC rules as a result of their role as investment advisors to certain individual and/or institutional clients or investment companies. The shares deemed to be beneficially owned by these investment managers are generally held by a variety of funds or investment companies, but no single fund or entity has an interest in Disclosing Party greater than 7.5%. For example, the shares attributed to Wellington Management Company, LLP represent the holdings of nineteen (19) separate funds, with the Hartford Capital Appreciation Fund holding the most number of Disclosing Party's shares (4.85%) according to the fund's filings.
